Special
Devon Hotel is situated in the picturesque naturally fortified town that was the last stronghold of the Kings of Lanka and withstood foreign conquest until ceded to the British. A cultural sanctuary, where age-old customs, arts, rituals and the ways of life are well preserved. The Temple of the Tooth (18th and 19th century), moated with tapered roof and octagon, enshrines the Sacred Tooth Relic of the Buddha.

The splendid age-old pageant (the Esala Perehera) is held annually for 10 nights during the Esala festival (August or late July ) to fete the Tooth Relic. Scores of dressed up elephants, Kandyan chiefs in ceremonial period costumes, massed Kandyan drummers and dancers make this an unparalleled manifestation. Other temples of interest in Kandy’s environs are Gadaladeniya and Lankatilleke (14th century)/ Gangarama (also partly 18th century) with its 27 ft. Buddha statue; the Galmaduwa (18th century). There is a picturesque artificial lake in the middle of the town. The magnificent 147 acre Royal Botanical Gardens at Peradeniya (4 miles away), one of the best tropical gardens in the world, has an especially fine collection of orchids. The delightful scenic campus of the University of Sri Lanka and the entertaining sight of working elephants being given their daily dip in the river at Katugastota – 3 miles away, are also an attraction.

Devon Hotel is perfect any time of day or night, with all its excellent outlets open 24 hours a day. A coffee shop which is a Roof Top affair that sprawls overall with its viewing balcony quite unspoiled in this crazy age of concrete jungles, a bar at the lobby and a fitness center that is free for guests.
